Creating a Floor plan, Footing detail and Isometric view using AutoCad

AIM:To create cross section of load bearing wall over spread footing using autocaed.

Command uses:

Line-To create whole cross section of wall.

Rectangle-to create rectangle at required section.

Offset-To create some line at known particular distance.

Trim-edit/delete unwanted or extra line crossing over another lines.

Dimension-to display the dimension of each section/line.

Text- to type given heading/text.

PROCEDURE:

step 1-Set the drwaing sheet-

  • Enter UNITS in command section-let typebe decimal with 0.00 precision.
  • Insertion scale be in milimeters with and lighting be internatinal-select OK.
  • Page limit can be setup in two ways-LIMAX or limits.
  • In LIMAX-command ,enter the maximum coordinate of the page as 50,50.
  • In limit-command,enter left corner coordinate as 0,0 and right most coordinate as 50,50.
  • Enter ZOOM in command bar and select ALL-enter.
  • start with the drawing.

step 2- Create footing layer

  • Type "rec" in command bar.
  • specify first corner point on the drawing sheet and select dimensions.
  • enter length as 0.9 and width as 0.25,select second corner to place.
  • draw a center vertical line from rectangle upto 1m height and horizontal line on rectangular top width of 0.9 distace.
  • type "offset" in command bar and enter offset distance as 0.25.
  • Offset the center line on either side.
  • press Esc to exit from offset.
  • right click on mouse and select repeat offset command .
  • enter offset distance as 0.4 and select top width line to offset.
  • Repeat the same procedure offset of 0.2 on either side of center line and 0.8 for horizontal offset from rectangular top width.
  • trim the unwanted line referring figure.

step 3:draw of load bearing wall:

  • repeat same offset procedure as in step two.
  • offset distance of 0.15 on either side of central line.
  • offset distance of 0.6,0.65 and 1.65 from column horizontal line.

step 4:draft of slab and staircase steps.

  • extended a hozintal line from column end.
  • offset distance of 0.15,0.3 and 0.45 from extended horizontal line.
  • similarly offset of 0.3,0.6,0.9 and 1.2 from load bearing wall.
  • offset of 0.15 below from extended hozintal column line.
  • trim off unwanted lines referring figure.
  • select text option from ribbon,specify height and width of text.
  • click on drawing page to enter the text and type.

Result:

  • specify next coordinate as @-0.24,0.
  • specify next coordinate as @0,-1.6.
  • specify next coordinate as @-0.38,-0.25.
  • click on close to end the drafting.

step 2:drafting of interior footing

  • select offset from modify panelin ribbon.
  • enter offset distance as 0.04 and offset column both side inside direction,extended the line till base of footing.
  • press esc to exit from the option.
  • press enter to repeat the command offset.
  • offset distance of 0.2 from top width of column,repeat 9 times from consective offseted line.
  • repeat offset with distance of 0.04 from base line of footing and 0.38 from side of interior footing.
  • trim the unwanted lines with refrence to given figure.

Result:

AIM:draft line diagram of two bedroom building

Procedure:

  • select ine from draw panel.
  • specify one corner annd enter distance as 8.8 @=ve x-axis.
  • specify next coordinate as 3.6 @+ve y-axis.
  • specify next coordinate as 8.8 @-ve x-axis.
  • specify next coordinate as 3.6 @-ve y-axis.
  • now type offset in command bar and set offset distance as 3.6.
  • select offset object as left side width of house and directed towards right side.
  • press Esc to exit from the command.
  • press enter to repeat the offset,set distance as 4.2.
  • select the object as right side wall and direct towards left side.
  • for drafting stairs of both side,draw aline between offset line.
  • select offset from modify panel from ribbon,distance as 0.3 and repeat 3 times on both sides.
  • trim two unwanted lines on right side of stairs.
  • select extended and specify distance to extend line on both left side of stairs at distance 1.8 of upper stirs and 0.9 of lower stairs.
  • select text option from ribbon,specify height as 0.1 and width of text.
  • click on drawing page to enter the text and type.

Result:

  • select the whole object and press enter.
  • specify the corner end point and direct cursor upwards.
  • select line and draw horizontal line for pcc bed and ground level.

AIM:Isometric view of gabble wall

Procedure:

keep the iso drawinf on,ortho on and snap mode off.

step 1- from iso-left drawing portion

  • select line command from draw panel in ribbon.
  • move the cursor right side and enter distance as 0.3.
  • specify next coordinate as 3 in +ve y axis.
  • specify next coordinate as 0.3 in -ve x-axis.
  • click on close to complete the line.

step 2-from iso left command drawing

  • enter again to repeat command line,select the corner of previous drawing to start.
  • specify coordinate as 1 in +ve x-axis.
  • specify next coordinate as 2.42 in +ve y-axis.
  • specify next coordinate as 1 in +ve x-axis.
  • specify next coordinate as 2.42 in -ve y-axis.
  • specify next coordinate as 1 in +ve x-axis.
  • specify next coordinate as 3 in +ve y-axis.
  • enter esc to exit from line command.

step 3-iso left portion

  • select line command,enter 0.3 distance towards -ve x-axis at door.
  • specify next coordinate as 2.42 @+ve y-axis,press esc.
  • press enter to repeat line command,to make slope portion of wall.
  • draw a line at center of door at a distance of 3.25.
  • join both side of wall corner to that line.
  • sepcify 0.3 as next coordinate and join another corner of wall.

Result:

AIM:isometric view of steps

Procedure:

off the object snap,let ortho be on.

  • set isoplane left on.
  • select the line command from draw panel.
  • select a corner,enter frist coordinate as 1 @+ve x-axis.
  • specify next coordinate as 0.15 @+ve y-axis.
  • specify next coordinate as 1 @-ve x-axis.
  • specify next coordinate as 0.15 @-ve y-axis.
  • change to isoplane top and continue line command.
  • specify the coordinate as 0.30 front.
  • specify next coordinate as 1 and cursor towards right.
  • specify next coordinate as 0.3 keeping cursor back.

  • change to isoplane right,enter copy in command bar.
  • select one whole step,point corsor at step corner point and paste.
  • repeat the same for two more steps.
  • change to isoplane left,select line and draw a line atend of steps with 0.15 unit @-ve y-axis.
  • join the first and last steps line.
